The police had flocked around the Maurice mansion, thanks to Nick's brilliance to call 112. The paramedics team were operating on Moses . By now he was much more awake after some resustication processes. The picture of Winnie Maurice had gone viral as well as international computer experts had been hired to trace the source of the data feed.
"Any progress on that?" one of the detectives named Wane asked.
" No sir " the computer technician replied. He watched as his hands typed with a super speed on the digital keyboard.
" The source is untraceable, I've managed to get the link but from what I'm seeing, it's bombarded with viruses"
" So what's our next option?" Detective Rod asked.
" We have to find a way to get in without tampering with the viruses"he replied.
" And how long would that take you?"
"Weeks, maybe months" he replied. At this Detective Rod sighed. He didn't have that much time. He picked his iPad as he walked out of the office.

Moses moved round the parlour, thinking of what to do. He tried to remember who he had offended lately, but no one. He has gone through his personal life, thinking of what would make people to kidnap his wife. He sat down and began to think; off he were the kidnappers, where would he keep her. Cold sweat emanated from his body as he rewatched the video footage. Before he could leave the room, his best friend stepped in with a pot bellied man.
"Derek, I need to be left alone in this okay,?" he said as he tried to push his way out. Derek stood at the door, this blocking him.
"No Moses, you are not exactly thinking straight" he said explaining his behavior.
" Ooh, you're the one who's not exactly thinking straight not me" he said sarcastically. " Now get out of my way" he shouted. At this Derek took a deep breath and looked at Moses again.
" Okay, you think you can do it alone, eeh?"
"Of course" Moses replied.
" Alright, tell me where are you going?"
"To find my wife's kidnappers " he replied almost immediately.
" Do you have a clue of where she is or even a lead? You're just going out there to wreck havoc on yourself " Derek explained. At this, Moses took in three deep breaths. It was now he realized that he needed help .
"Okay, I admit" he said as he sunk on the chair in despair."I need your help". At this Derek and Detective Rod looked at each other and smiled. Detective Rod took the initiative.
"Hi Moses " he said in his bass masculine voice.
" Yeah, please who are you?" Detective Rod looked at him for sometime before he could finally speak.
" I'm Detective Roderick Robert. " he said coming closer to Moses . From afar one could sense the stuff he was made of.
"And I'm here to help you" he said his hands akimbo as his ego filled the room
